Pre-Opening Celebration Pet Paw Mosaic Event

Unity Animal Hospital Opens for Business, Monday, February 17.  Sneak Peeks and Celebrations, Sunday, February 16.

You and your pets are invited to join the Unity team between 10am and 1 pm for an opportunity to be part of our Paws-N-Tails mosaic.   We commissioned prominent Media mosaic artist Claire Brill to create a mural that showcases our community members’ love for their pets. Claire has designed Paws-N-Tails, a 4-foot x 20-foot mural comprised of clay paw prints of the public’s own animals, along with their names, surrounded by mosaic tiles patterned to look like animal tails.  Any funds raised for the project in excess of the artist’s fee will be donated to Unity’s Pet Retention and Rescue Funds.

Anyone interested in having a pet’s paw print included in the artwork may bring the animal to the event at Unity Animal Hospital at 1 N. Providence Road, Wallingford and have the print set in clay for a charge of $100 per animal. For an additional $50, participants will receive a second paw print of their pet to take home. All dogs attending the event must be leashed, and all cats and other animals must be in secure carriers.   This is a terrific way to be memorialized as a part of the Unity community while supporting a great cause.

The Paws-N-Tails mural will be an ongoing project and pet paw prints may be purchased after Unity opens.
